Do you remember the classic detective board game Clue? It was a very popular game in the 90's.

The plot starts with the death of Mr. Boddy, the very wealthy owner of Tudor Manor. He was killed under highly suspicious circumstances, and it's the players mission to uncover which suspect murdered him, what weapon was used, and in which room of the mansion the crime took place.

When playing Clue, these three details are represented by a suspect card, a weapon card and a room card that are kept hidden in an envelope for the duration of the game. By progressively revealing the remaining cards, the players can infer which are the three cards that are hidden. When a player is confident that they know the solution to the mystery, they will try to reveal it. If a player guesses correctly, they win the game.

Clue has three different card types: suspects, rooms, and weapons. We'll be given the same amount of information for any given card with the same card type.

As such, let's create an array for every card type, that is going contain the objects representing each card. These arrays should be named suspectsArray, weaponsArray, roomsArray.

All of the information you need about suspects, rooms, and weapons can be found on the DATA.md file.

Suggestion: Copy this data into the clue.js file and model it into objects nested inside your cards arrays. This is a great chance for you to experiment with IDE shortcuts, multiple-line selection, find and replace, and other great features that VSCode provides you with.

All of six possible suspects in Clue have a first name, last name, occupation, age, description, image and color.

To complete this iteration, you should have an array that looks something like the following:

const suspectsArray = [
  {
    firstName: 'Jacob',
    lastName: 'Green',
    occupation: 'Entrepreneur'
    // ...
  }
  // ...
];

There are a total of nine weapons. Each of them has a different name and weight.

The game board represents the blueprints of the mansion and features fifteen different rooms. Each room will only have a name.

At the beginning of the game, players shuffle each of the card stacks to create a combination of suspect, weapon and room. This will be the mystery to solve.

Declare a function named selectRandom to randomly select one element from a card stack. The function should expect an array as an argument, and should return a random element from the array.

Declare a function named pickMystery that takes no arguments and returns an object with three properties, suspect, weapon and room, each holding as a value a card of that specific type. You can get a random card of each type by calling selectRandom on each card stack.

At last, we're ready to unveil the mystery.

Declare a function named revealMystery that receives an envelope object (such as the one returned by pickMystery) as the single argument, and returns a reveal message in the following format:

<FIRST NAME> <LAST NAME> killed Mr. Boddy using the <WEAPON> in the <ROOM>!
